Biafra was established on 30 May 1967 by Igbo military officer and Eastern Region governor Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. The Nigerian military attempted to reclaim the territory of Biafra, resulting in the beginning of the Nigerian Civil War. Biafra was officially recognized as a sovereign and independent country by Gabon, Haiti, Côte d'Ivoire, Tanzania, and Zambia while receiving de facto recognition and covert military support from France, Portugal, Israel, South Africa, and Rhodesia. After nearly three years of war, during which around two million Biafran civilians died, Nigeria declared victory.

1968, "SOVEREIGN BIAFRA" overprints, extraordinary mint balance of
apprx. 276 stamps of all denominations, comprising three complete
sets plus plenty of further material (17x½d., 11x1d., 11x1½d.,
10x2d., 13x4d., 14x6d., 14x9d., 7x1s.3d., 14x2s.6d., 12x5s.,
9x10s., 11x£1), also several specialities like 90 stamps ½d. and
1d. with differing, smaller surcharge "SOVEREIGN BIAFRA /
BIAFRA-FRANCE FREINDSHIP 1968" (and two of them double/one
inverted), two stamps ½d. showing a larger, thicker surcharge than
issued, and 1s.3d.+2s.6d. each with missing red surcharge (SG 12b,
13b). Some stamps are showing some gum irregularities which is
rather normal for that issue since remainders of postage stamps
have been used (to be seen at a fixed vertical strip of the 2d.
value with distinctive paper folds), and not necessarily a fault in
the common sense. This issue is quite rarely offered, especially in
that quantity. Derives from the estate of a "Big Oil" manager who
worked in Nigeria. (M)
